Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, 1886

McGeary v. McGeary

McGeary v. McGeary
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania · Decided January 4, 1886
1 Sadler 297; 3 A. 22; 1886 Pa. LEXIS 590

McGeary v. McGeary

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam:

The evidence to prove the execution of the will by Abbott L. McGeary was most ample to submit to the jury. Whether the devisee was the wife or the mistress, the testator had a legal right to devise his property to her. The evidence of the marriage was, however, so positive that it could not be taken from the jury. The credibility of the witness was for the jury, and was properly submitted.

Judgment affirmed.
